fraud connections of LPG as government needs to pay a heavy subsidy on these
cylinders.

31 December 2012.

multiple connections with same address of different names. Government notices
that the connection numbers are almost 2 crore which have same address and
different names.

Government wants one
household, one connection policy and appeal to people to give up the additional
connections.

In the case where two connections
are with the husband and wife name, the company will close one of its
connection and where two or three families staying in same address like one
family of father and another of son’s, in this case distributors are collecting
the KYC forms to check the genuinely of the connection.

3 more LPG subsidy gas cylinders in the remaining fiscal year which will be end
on 31 March 2012. After which the consumer will only get 6 subsidy LPG gas cylinders
